Dear Friends,
This is the first issue of Art Talk, a mauritiusarts.com e-newsletter, designed to promote local art.
Peruse through mauritiusarts.com shop and see what tempts you!The price ranges from Rs 5,000 to around 80,000 and there should be a piece of art that will suit your taste and budget.
If you tell us your budget, mauritiusarts.com may also concoct a listing for you.
I wish to seize the opportunity to inform you that the international World Art Day will be celebrated this year on the April 15,birth date of Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519).
The slogan is offer art to your dear ones and I am sure this could be a great opportunity for you to offer them Mauritian art at its best.
